Civilization Invasion: Summon The Player To Flatten The Back Room

Chapter 137 Chain Reaction (6000 Words Chapter)

3 days later.

Alpha base, conference room.

"The headquarters has returned a message."

"What do you say, did you get any results?"

Faced with Blos's silly question, Gardel said angrily: "What are you thinking? Everyone has been killed, and even if they haven't been killed, they have been captured and disappeared."

"If I insist on saying something, it's that the masked girl was hit hard this time, and she won't come out to make trouble in a short time. We can be stable for a while."

The masked girl with mysterious whereabouts showed her feet. Under the premise of the accident at Site 8, the headquarters still sent 3,000 troops, and reached a cooperation with the Eye of Argos. The other party also sent 500 "North Korean" troops. And led by two truth arbitrators to jointly crusade.

If the operation is successful, it can not only severely damage the organization.

If we follow through on this and find Level μ, the real base camp of the masked girl, and dispatch more support at that time, we can wipe out this distorted organization accumulated by hatred in one go.

But no one thought of it.

The massive siege began.

Ultimately anticlimactic end.

After the mixed formation arrived at Level 939, they saw only rubble ruins and glass shards all over the floor, and colorful balloons floating everywhere on the ceiling, and the "=)" on them mocked them for coming too late.

In addition, there is an unknown slime on the ground.

After testing and testing, they are a mixture of predator weeds and limb secretions. From these things, it can be inferred that:

Eight hours after the attack, a furious Ethan Nelson broke into Level 939, but by then Ancer and the partygoers had left, leaving her with the corpses of her siblings strewn all over the floor.

Except for the teleportation mirror of Level 204, all the mirrors were destroyed in the battle. The core was scanned and judged, and a conclusion was reached: unless Elfina came, there was no way to repair them.

After reading the summary sent by the headquarters.

Ye Xiao asked Gardel: "How is the doctor?"

For the past three days he has been looking after Palter.

"It's better than the previous two days. I can always eat something today."

Gardel took a sip of the almond water and shook his head: "Unexpectedly, Anser is a traitor. It's a spoiler. How could it join the partygoers? It seems that its status is not low... Boss, did you guess that the traitor is it? "

"It's not a guess."

"Just figured out a few things."

Ye Xiao tapped on the table and said calmly: "Before, I was thinking that the traitor might be able to disclose the news of the two doctors' going to Level 4 to the partygoers."

"But when the party guests raided the Omega base, they accurately and directly dropped into the room where they were, which means that the traitor can always keep track of their movements."

"You know, the two doctors are closely guarded at all times. As long as they shout in the room, gunmen outside will swarm in, and the monitoring system of the Omega base has no record of being invaded."

"It's a bit difficult for that traitor to do this."

listen to this.

The expressions of the two people changed: "Unless..."

Ye Xiao said the answer calmly: "Unless the traitor is Anser himself."

"Of course, this is just occasional speculation. I was only sure at the moment it took off the mask."

2 people are silent.

They already knew that Anser was a traitor.

Can……

Why?

Palter wants to know the answer more than they do.

Ever since he learned that Anser was a traitor, he has been completely out of his mind. If it were a person, it would be best described by Elfina who just lost Keira.

Ye Xiao could understand its mood.

A dear friend who has lived and died together, we have been separated for nearly 2 months, and we are looking forward to the reunion.

As a result, when they met again, the other party directly became an enemy.

It is difficult for anyone to accept this.

Even if it has a "=)" face all day long, you can still feel its confusion and sadness.

However, to Ye Xiao's surprise, it was not the base staff but the players who first noticed Palt's abnormal depression.

The cause of the matter is simple:

In addition to making special body armor, Palt is also an equipment repair NPC for players.

However, with its huge negative emotions, it made frequent mistakes. In the past 3 days, when repairing firearms, it often installed springs of the wrong size, or a screw was not tightened.

The most serious mistake appeared on 【Anthropomorphic Sans】.

This poor player, looking for Palter to maintain his guns every day, and then went to Level 19 with his small team. Last time he jumped into the "orange light trap" to avoid death moths, and his descendants disappeared.

Therefore, he especially wanted to try what would happen if he crippled the Death Moth and threw it in.

As a result, when facing the death moth, due to Palt's negligence, there was a blockage in the barrel, and the bullet propellant exploded in the barrel before it was completely burned.

He broke himself on the spot.

Not only did he run for nothing all morning, but the main weapon was also completely scrapped.

After being revived, [Anthropomorphic sans] came to the laboratory angrily, wanting to ask Palt for an explanation, but after finding out that it was not there, he OB'd it on the forum for as long as 3 hours.

Then I like to mention the silence package.

If it's a single person, that's fine.

The problem is that now the total number of players has reached 3100, and there are basically 2000+ online every day. With a huge base, Palt's mistakes cannot be ignored.

Gardel asked, "How about I work for it for 2 days?"

Ye Xiao thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea: "No need."

Open the forum.

At this time, a large number of players are complaining about the bug of "Palt" below.

[Grumpy Girl Madoka]: "Extraordinary, the 'Dr. Anser' we are looking for in the main mission is actually with the party guests. In terms of character design, it seems to have a deep connection with Palt. The relationship between them There won't be any bloody love stories. (Excitedly rubbing hands)"

【Beijing Li Roast Duck】: "Oh? Let me be healthy. (smirk)"

[Angela Stomach]: "I'm not interested in love stories or anything, I want to know what it means when I come to refill the oil, it pours almond water into my chainsaw? Is this a bug? Why hasn't the official fix it yet? (curling lips) "

[Skywalker]: "Palter's maintenance success rate has dropped significantly... um, wait! @曹贼在这@一个真实的鸡Since you finished the task, Palter's maintenance success rate has dropped significantly, Will it be related to your mission?"

[Bubble Instant Noodles]: "I feel that it seems to be very sad recently. It has such a real emotional reaction, but why is it sad?"

[Skywalker]: "Looking at the information, Palt and Anser seem to be very good friends, but Anser went out with partygoers, so this is equivalent to..."

[Irritable girl Madoka]: "Surrender to the enemy!"

[I'm funny]: "Sleep~take (laughs)" (failed to send)

[Skywalker]: "I'll make a bold guess. It should be the plot that Cao thief and you three encountered. It was you who discovered the incident that 'Anser' and the partygoers were together, so after Palt knew about it, his emotions This may be the root cause of the decline in the success rate of equipment maintenance.”

[Meng Po Soup Quality Inspector]: "Ah, is this logical?"

[Grumpy Girl Madoka]: "I think what you said makes sense, you deserve to be a Skywalker boss! (Like it)"

Good guy.

There is no need to explain yourself.

Ye Xiao thought, since his players are so good at making up their minds, maybe in the next version, they can set up a small task: Daily condolences to Dr. Palter?

【Brother Xiao (Administrator)】: "@Skywalker is very observant, I give you a thumbs up, this is not a bug, but an important update for the next version."

"Everyone should have noticed that Dr. Palter is currently in a depressed mood. Why?"

"It's actually very simple. It is indeed caused by the hidden plot discovered by the three friends. "Backrooms" is a game that pays attention to storytelling and logic. Each character has its own emotional values in the setting. , and a complex network of character relationships."

"For example, Palt was very sad when he knew Anser's betrayal, but if the incident of 'Anser's betrayal' had not been discovered, then it would not be sad. It was your game behavior that caused the incident to go differently. development direction."

"The underlying mechanism of this plot development model, we call it the PZ free script."

"This script is still a test content in the current version. It is only used on a small number of NPCs, and the next version will be officially launched."

【Skywalker】: "Well! Σ( ° △ °|||)"

[A real eel]: "Fuck, the administrator is out. Σ(｀д′*ノ)ノ"

[Bubble Noodles]: "Damn it, the administrator actually explained it. (°ー°〃)"

[Monsoon]: "Pass it on, the administrator has finally done a personnel job except banning speech."

[High-cold diamond block]: "Administrator, please ask for a place in the third test. (≧∇≦)ﾉ"

[Miss Qiqi]: "Please ask for the quota for the third test. (≧∇≦)ﾉ"

[Shadow Arrogance]: "+1(≧∇≦)ﾉ"

...

Ye Xiao returned to his office.

Sitting at the desk, I poured myself a cup of tea and coffee, visualized the core, and showed the last video of the three people before they were shot.

There are 2 sentences that make him pay special attention.

"Capture 37 subjects."

"37 experimental subjects are enough to make the next batch of 'source medicine'."

This is Ancer's conversation with a partygoer.

In the words, Anser referred to the captured masked girls as experimental subjects, and there is also a special term.

"Source Potion"

"Is this thing the source medicine?"

Ye Xiao took out the bottle of blue potion.

Under the light, the medicine bottle emits a beautiful blue light like a galaxy.

It's hard to imagine that such a small bottle of pure and harmless things could be a weapon, and a weapon that consumes human life.

"Core, you said earlier that this thing is for injection."

"What would happen if you injected it into ordinary people?"

The core replied: "Host, I have finished analyzing the item during this time."

"If it is injected into ordinary people, their physical function and responsiveness will be greatly improved."

"Taking Lv 35 Gardel as an example, if he injects a full bottle, it is expected to be at least able to upgrade to Lv 75."

Ye Xiao was slightly surprised: "Level 40 in a row?"

"Yes, it is estimated that as long as 5 bottles are injected, it can be raised to Lv 120."

"However, there is an improvement limit for this medicine for humans. Lv 120 is its upper limit. No matter how much you inject after that, there will be no improvement."

Ye Xiao noticed the core words: "You mean, it can also be used by non-humans?"

"Some entities may also use it, and the level cap is different."

The core slowly said: "I have coupled the energy structure of the masked girl and the party master, and after analysis, I speculate that they can both be used."

Ye Xiao asked: "The collective strengthening of the party guests this time is also due to it?"

In the past, partygoers were just weak entities, with levels ranging from Lv 15 to Lv 50.

But the number and quality of the partygoers who attacked Level 939 this time were frightening.

To put it bluntly, if they come to attack themselves, the current Alpha base is not an opponent at all - they can allocate half of their troops to block the player's spring water, and the other half can kill everyone in the base except themselves. It's spotless.

"No, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with that."

"Their changes have nothing to do with structural energy. It's more like Anser used his own biotechnology to transform and mutate them."

The core continued: "They attacked Level 939 and kidnapped 37 masked girls. There is a high probability that they made this potion and gave it to the party master."

Ye Xiao thought about it again.

Right.

At present, it seems that the enhanced version has at least 2000 party guests.

If you rely on this "source potion" to upgrade, you won't be able to make up so much unless you kill the masked girl.

"Host, I speculate that the party master is evolving."

"Its evolution depends on this potion."

The core had reminded Ye Xiao that during the period when Palt was crying in pain, there was an extremely weak quantum connection trying to control Palt.

But it eventually broke.

The core speculates that the party master should have just started to accept this potion at that time, and started its first evolution. In this evolution, it tried to evolve the ability to control all party guests.

But failed.

For an entity like the Party Master, there are three directions of evolution: [connection], [breeding ability], and [self-enhancement].

"It tried to contact Palt, but failed. Its subsequent evolutionary trend is likely to expand in two other directions."

"The host doesn't have to worry about Palt being controlled by it."

Ye Xiao nodded: "Then can you guess what level the party master is now?"

"It is expected not to be lower than Lv 180, and the upper limit of this potion should be Lv 200 for the party master."

"I see."

Ye Xiao almost understood what those cruel executioners wanted to achieve in the masked girl experiment back then.

Compared to a madman full of hatred after wearing a mask.

Making TA's heart into this kind of "source potion" and giving it to a trusted person for injection, although several lives will be lost, but once the time is prolonged, it can indeed create a group of extraordinary fighters.

A large batch of Lv 120.

Even the Eye of Argos cannot ignore the existence of this force.

Now it seems that the 37 kidnapped masked girls, including Elfina, are Anser who is planning to dig out his heart to make this potion for the party master to use.

but……

Anser's words made him a little puzzled.

"Experiment"

Eight years ago, when those experimenters were all executed, Anser hadn't joined M.E.G. at all, and it was even less likely that he had anything to do with the masked girl experiment.

Why, does it call the masked girl that?

Could it be that the masked girl experiment...

Haven't stopped yet?

tuk tuk -

After knocking on the door, Gardel walked in: "Boss, the headquarters said that Palt should go back for a medical examination."

After the core test, Palt has no problems.

But in order not to make the headquarters suspicious, Ye Xiao nodded: "Well, send it back to Level 11 tomorrow."

Gardel continued: "Kat said, after Palter's medical examination, continue to let him stay at the Alpha base, then I will go over from the hub tomorrow."

"No, I'll go myself."

Ye Xiao drank the coffee in his cup: "I'm going to the B.N.T.G. site to buy some things, and there are some things I want to talk to Kat face to face."

"OK."

After Gardel left, Ye Xiao walked to the window and stared at the base under his feet.

In the report, he did not report Anser's betrayal, but simply explained that the Alpha base had seized a special monitoring device from Keira and others, and it was through this device that he discovered the entrance to Level 939. The device was subsequently found damaged.

Anyway, the dead can't speak.

Nothing could be overstated in a place as eccentric as the back room.

Submitted videos are also edited to the core, and according to it, no one person or entity can tell it was edited.

There is no party raid and Anser's appearance in the video, and the Alpha base report did not submit that Anser was a traitor.

Even Kat needs to use a subtle way to remind himself and others that there are traitors.

This shows that the involvement behind Anser made her scruples.

Therefore, Ye Xiao would naturally not be so stupid as to mention this matter in a newsletter or report.

...

Level 10, a wheat field.

Here is a wilderness full of mist, stretching as far as the eye can see, the still young wheat is surrounded by greenery, and the green wheat stalks are dotted with water.

Occasionally, a gentle wind blows, the dense fog does not move, but the blue wheat rolls forward like waves.

In the fog in the distance, two figures slowly emerged from a distance.

"Damn crusher."

Just after switching from Level 9 to Level 10, 006 couldn't help complaining: "There are 7 crushers hidden in a fog! What kind of luck is this?"

"It has nothing to do with luck, it's because we have fewer knives."

Although 007 was panting and sweating, his voice was still calm.

He raised the broken blade, glanced at the dense notches on it, and then dropped it casually: "Did you say you grew up in Ground 10 when you were a child?" (The Eye of Argos refers to Level as Ground)

"right."

"Then you know the way, let's go to Malt Town to resupply."

After traveling for nearly half an hour, the two of them successfully arrived at the outpost of Level 10 Malt Town.

When the local residents saw that the two were members of the Eye of Argos, they were extremely enthusiastic.

Not only did they refill the almond water, but they also took out the battery, which was considered a rare commodity in the back room, and fully charged the dead communicator of the two of them.

However, 006 and 007 did not take advantage of it.

I gave the boss 1/3 of the royal ration to pay for my own expenses.

beep~

Glancing at the communicator, 006 couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Oh, what a coincidence."

"What's wrong?"

"The higher authorities want us to stay at Ground 10."

"Why."

"Ethan Nelson's hiding place seems to have something to do with Ground 10." 006 said while pouring almond water into his mouth, "The management wants us to investigate carefully and protect the nearby residents by the way."

"How did this information come about? Is it reliable?"

"It's information from M.E.G."

007 said lightly: "I still trust our intelligence system more."

...

Level 11, Boundless City.

The sun is setting.

On the highest floor of the Genting Tower, Kat is standing in front of the French windows, gazing at the fiery red sunset in the sky, which is slowly but firmly approaching the horizon.

The orange light that is almost parallel to the earth falls on the checkerboard-like Level 11, casting shadows of the same length on every tall building and an ant-like pedestrian in a hurry.

It's getting dark.

But Kat knew, as everyone who lived at Level 11 knew.

It's just that the sun is doing repeated cyclical movement again. The moment it touches the horizon, it will start to rebound and rise, shedding more blazing brilliance, and illuminating people's way forward.

There is never a dark night at Level 11.

like...

Kat couldn't help but cast her eyes in one direction.

That's where Site 8 is.

From this point of view, the huge building that took at least 800,000 tons of concrete to build is just a faint red dot.

The world that that place leads to never has daylight.

"Ms. Kat."

After a brief knock on the door.

[Li Xun] dressed as a courier walked in, and pulled the brim of his hat as usual: "Mission completed."

"You did very well."

"Alpha base replied, saying that Ye Xiao will bring Palt over tomorrow."

"Hmm... is there anything else?"

Seeing that 【Li Xun】had not left for a long time, Kat asked.

"I think there's something abnormal about the Alpha base."

"What's wrong?"

[Li Xun] His lips twitched, as if he was thinking about his words: "Some of the personnel in this base... are too brave, and a little mentally deranged. The most important thing is that the masked girl once attacked the Alpha base."

"I checked the configuration of the Alpha base three months ago, and it stands to reason...they can't stop them."

"It seems that they have recruited a lot of homeless people who are wandering outside."

"Do you need to send someone to find out the situation?"

Just then, the sun began to rise.

The fiery light of the setting sun is fading rapidly, converging rapidly towards the sun, like a dancer lifting the hem of her skirt.

"unnecessary."

After a long time, Kat said slowly: "Ye Xiao him, I brought that kid into M.E.G., I know him well."

"He is a very pure child who wants to go home and will not do things that endanger human beings."

[Li Xun] nodded: "I see."

"There's one more thing. Don't let Stretch and Andrew know about your delivery to the Alpha base."

"clear."

After [Li Xun] left, Kat entered the password in the drawer.

Open the folder and take out the files inside.

【Class A Top Secret Information】-
